TheOfficialTourney 2025 – Round 1 Game 2 (Fixed, Portals, True Random)#

Summary: Battle of Waterloo provided the perfect stage for my comeback win in TheOfficialTourney 2025. This large map with unstable portals created a chaotic yet strategic environment that rewarded careful positioning and opportunistic play.

In this match, I secured an early +2 bonus, avoided unnecessary conflicts, and capitalized on other players' mistakes. Despite True Random dice and blizzards, I maintained control throughout and defeated Nise, the #1 ELO ranked player in the world.

Key takeaways from this game:

  • Early bonuses (even small +2s) provide critical momentum
  • Avoiding the spotlight while others fight is often advantageous
  • With True Random dice, every attack carries significant risk
  • Timing trades and eliminations can swing the game dramatically
  • Unstable portals create both threats and opportunities

This victory wasn't just about placementβ€”it was a statement performance that demonstrated the importance of patience, positioning, and adaptability on a complex map.

Strategic Analysis:
The Battle of Waterloo map in Secret Assassin mode is a test of patience and precision. With unstable portals and blizzards, positioning is everything.
